Version v30.0.0

This is a major version that is not backward compatible.

  • We refactored the core processing with Importers that import data and Improvers that
    transform imported data and convert that in Vulnerabilities and Packages. Improvers can
    also improve and refine imported and existing data as well as enrich data using external
    data sources. The migration to this new architecture is under way and not all importers
    are available.

    Because of these extensive changes, it is not possible to migrate existing imported
    data to the new schema. You will need instead to restart imports from an empty database
    or access the new public.vulnerablecode.io live instance. We also provide a database dump.

  • You can track the progress of this refactoring in this issue:
    #597

  • We added new data sources including PYSEC, GitHub and GitLab.

  • We improved the documentation including adding development examples for importers and improvers.

  • We removed the ability to edit relationships from the UI. The UI is now read-only.

  • We replace the web UI with a brand new UI based on the same overall look and feel as ScanCode.io.

  • We added support for NixOS as a Linux deployment target.

  • The aliases of a vulnerabily are reported in the API vulnerabilities/ endpoint

  • There are breaking Changes at API level with changes in the data structure:

    • in the /api/vulnerabilities/ endpoint:

      • Rename resolved_packages to fixed_packages
      • Rename unresolved_packages to affected_packages
      • Rename url to reference_url in the reference list
      • Add is_vulnerable property in fixed and affected_packages.

    • in the /api/packages/ endpoint:

      • Rename unresolved_vulnerabilities to affected_by_vulnerabilities
      • Rename resolved_vulnerabilities to fixing_vulnerabilities
      • Rename url to reference_url in the reference list
      • Add new attribute is_resolved
      • Add namespace filter

  • We have provided backward compatibility for url and unresolved_vulnerabilities for now.
    These will be removed in the next major version and should be considered as deprecated.

  • There is a new experimental cpe/ API endpoint to lookup for vulnerabilities by CPE and
    another aliases/ endpoint to lookup for vulnerabilities by aliases. These two endpoints will be
    replaced by query parameters on the main vulnerabilities/ endpoint when stabilized.

  • Added filters for vulnerabilities endpoint to get fixed packages in accordance
    to the details given in filters: For example, when you call the endpoint this way
    /api/vulnerabilities?type=pypi&namespace=foo&name=bar, you will receive only
    fixed versioned purls of the type pypi, namespace foo and name bar.

  • Package endpoint will give fixed packages of only those that
    matches type, name, namespace, subpath and qualifiers of the package queried.

  • Paginated initial listings to display a small number of records
    and provided page per size with a maximum limit of 100 records per page.

  • Add fixed packages in vulnerabilities details in packages endpoint.

  • Add bulk search support for CPEs.

  • Add authentication for REST API endpoint.
    The autentication is disabled by default and can be enabled using the
    VULNERABLECODEIO_REQUIRE_AUTHENTICATION settings.
    When enabled, users have to authenticate using
    their API Key in the REST API.
    Users can be created using the Django "createsuperuser" management command.

  • The data license is now CC-BY-SA-4.0 as this is the highest common
    denominator license among all the data sources we collect and aggregate.

Other:

  • We dropped calver to use a plain semver.
  • We adopted vers and the new univers library to handle version ranges.
